Drag Radials vs Slicks

Many have said that drag radials dont work with a 4 spd trans. Im going to be running an automatic but it will have a 3200 dynamic stall convertor. I get the feeling that drag radials dont hook well from a higher RPM launch. Has anyone run drag radials then slicks on the same vehicle to see if the car would run faster or slower? Stroked340 how fast are you running. did you get faster or slower with the radials?

Thanks Rod
